Watching commentators still refusing to see the white nationalism of this administration and arguingTrump is targeting Atlanta, Philadelphia and Detroit because they are blue cities is just, it’s got to be intentional at this point. There are a ton of blue cities. These are majority Black cities.

My column from Monday. The Alabama government’s ceaseless panic over DEI and Black history reminds us that the fundamental principle of state government over the last 200 years is silencing Black voices and pushing Black Alabamians out of public life.
How Alabama gives us a never-ending lesson in Black history | Alabama Reflector
By pushing their voices off campuses and out of classrooms, leaders remind us that controlling Black Alabamians has always been this state's priority.

Slavery continues to have impacts on everything from where people live to the South’s high poverty rates to public health among Black Americans (Alabama’s high and racially disparate infant mortality rates are a direct consequence of slavery) and it’s critical to understand that.
Physically incapable of analyzing politics outside of this insipid frame.

It was in the early morning of Valentine's Day 1965 that Malcolm X's home was firebombed while he, his wife, and their four daughters were inside.

Everyone survived the attack, but exactly one week later Malcolm would be assassinated

Lovely interview with my pal, and former band mate, Edel Coffey about her forthcoming third novel (another smash, I'm sure) In Glass Houses.

Edel Coffey: ‘I didn’t touch my book deal money for a year. I was afraid they’d made a mistake’
Now three books in, as she says, the author and journalist spent many years as a ‘shadow artist’, circling the thing she loved

Why am I never going to shut up about how terrible Gavin Newsom is? Because I don't like this cross-platform inorganic effort to shut people up about how he much he sucks. I'm not letting a bunch of bots tell me what to do. It's pure oppositional defiance. Lol

Valentine’s Day is often seen as a celebration of timeless, universal love, but in fifteenth-century Ireland love could also be treated as a medical condition. Evidence of this survives in a manuscript called the Book of the O’Lees (RIA MS 23 P 10 (ii)).

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Let’s be honest: in many of these winter Olympic “sports”, the snow is doing most of the work. An unexpected thaw would expose these so-called athletes for the frauds they are

The gynecologist listed in the Epstein files is why the rest of us are losing access to abortions. That’s precisely where trump got his ‘post-birth abortion’ story.

too many kids today have never destroyed the family PC with sketchy downloads

you must learn to fear Computer before you can properly wield Computer
folks today don't know the abject fear of inadvertently downloading, for the first (and only lol) time, a .exe file from kazaa or limewire and it shows

def one of those "it only takes one time to learn" but oooo boy at what cost for that single instance

There has been no draw down today. ICE snatched someone off Central Ave out of his car because he looked Latino before then letting him go a couple hours later. They were stopping people in Blaine on highway 65, they were all around Fridley, and were in the parking lot of the St Anthony liquor store

Completely agree
i think nominating Gavin Newsom will lose the White House again for Democrats. The party's left flank will stay home again because he's an empty corporate shell. The age of Democrats punching left to appeal to the center is over and it's now a matter of if the party as a whole realizes that or not.

Facebook plans to put facial recognition in its glasses and they think we’re too stupid to fight back.

Their internal memo: “We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.”
